The number of commercial cases launched in the High Court has risen to its highest level for six years. Statistics reveal there were 64,046 civil cases launched in the High Court in 2007 - a 1.6% increase on 2006.

However, the figures show that the much-anticipated boom in credit crunch related litigation has not yet materialised.
